 Leeward Islands XI v South Africans - 3 day match - at St Johns, Antigua - 1998/9 - Match Preview


Pitch: 19 - Hard and bumpy, this wicket will always give the faster bowlers a chance. There is also the prospect that it will not stand up to five (or even four) days play and batting could become a nightmare in the later stages. It is doubtful that this wicket is really up to test standard.

Day 1 Starting Pitch: 6A - Hard Pitch with Excessive Bounce
